Dark by Design

[Hakka]

Have to say, Dark By Design are amazing. Been listening to the most hard trance releases and they are all pretty good.

Anyone else really in to Dark By Design?

[Paul Nisbet]

i dont really rate his stuff all that higly personally, but hes got IMMENSE talent, thats obvious.

He puts out too much imo.



I seen him dj at the tidy wkdner, and he was ****in immense.

[DJ Corbzy]

His sound is far to messy IMO...

And totally agree with Pal, put's out far too much stuff...

Used to love his old Synthetix stuff tho... :clap:

[Louk]

agree some is good but a lot is ****ing awful

Louk

[Hakka]

which ones are do you rate and which ones do you hate?

I like some of the releases he has done when working with others too as well as on his own...

Nexus
Dj Nervous - Red Alert
Alf Bamford - Heart Burn (bit hard house perucssion, but quite cool when it goes off)
Dark by Design vs L-E-V8 and Leigh Green E.P. - Ulimited Project
Sol Ray and Dark by Design - Telepathy X

A lot do sound the same and use similar idea's, which is failing... but my favourite has to be Unlimited Project and Nexus.

[lukekendall]

i liked his first release on pulse and also bang No1

think some of his stuff is a bit predictable

[capone13]

Preferred some of his older tracks, like "Visions Of Skywalking" and a few others that came out on promo at Nu Energy, thats when I heard about him first. At the moment, a lot of Gazza's choonz are beginning to sound pretty similar.

[Yoshimitsu]

made more shit than quality imo, but wen he gets it right they're really good..

visions of skywalking
dance with the devil
apocalypse
future (with sol ray)
Dream within a dream (newish one, think i like the b-side)
telepathy x
blackout (not bad)
Nexus (side)

uses too many of the same sounds in his tunes though.. You can tell any of his tracks by the drum rolls alone

[davemoore]

:clap: :clap: ive think dark by design have created some wicked tunes this year very pleased

[Starfuqer]

i really like the first half of blackout

[Winds]

I was well into his older stuff: Dance with the devil, visions of sky walking n a few others on synthetix. Hes a wicked producer imo, but im not fully into his newer stuff.

[DJ Corbzy]

Dance with the Devil
Dream within a dream
Visions of Skywalking
Future

And that snare roll.... :lol: :lol:

Get a new ****ing pattern Gaz! :lol:

[Paul Nisbet]

never really felt much of his stuff, blackout was cool.... but ahm wi corbz, new snare pattern would be nice.


Some of his stuff aswell seems to be a million times better made, than other tracks he does.

like it when he does the german sound, reckon he should push that.

[Marc B]

I am a big fan of Dark By Design. Gaz has produced some quality stuff of late. Playin with Fire was a good tune.
To be honest, I prefer his remix work. He is half of HTUK with phil york and there remix of Tenth Planet's ghosts from last year was amazing, and indeed the Join me mix at the moment. Also love his remix of Dave Joy's "First Impression" on Good Greef Tunes. Awesome stuff!!

[Louk]

i think a load of his stuff sounds the same now but some good tunes come through

[lukekendall]

the latest one on headstong was good, no where to hide i think its called

[EmotionComplex]

hes not my cuppa tea really

[DJ Corbzy]

he still bores me.. :cry:

[Soundfixation]

hes good at what he does but is he an artist or a producer? when he works with different people i think it shows hes more of a producer than an artist !

Yeah i agree with alex..well put mate. He makes too much showing that he's a bif of a machine...
